Secretary
Better when the front desk is your real job
- • Cheaper and easier to justify early
- • Best for check-in pacing and window rhythm
- • Makes more sense in co-op intake roles than in room-running solo play
Class Comparison
This comparison matters when players are choosing between a cheaper desk-support pick and a more specialized defense class. The short answer is that Secretary is the safer early choice, while Security only makes sense if your team already plays around cameras, tasers, and threat control.
If you just want a class that helps the average run feel smoother, Secretary usually wins. If you need a dedicated defense lane and someone really stays on CCTV, Security starts making more sense.

You actually stay on the desk, you want a cheap support step, and your team needs smoother intake more than stronger defense.
One player already owns threat control and CCTV, and your team is stable enough that a niche defense class will pay off.
Your runs still die to bad admits, weak anomaly reads, or missing healing flow more than they die to class specialization.
